He received undergraduate degrees in history and economics from the University of Virginia and then remained at the University of Virginia for medical school.

"A lifelong sucker for sports metaphors, I believe absolutely in hard work, preparation, and ongoing training. I regard patients and other medical staff as team members and I will serve patient's interests and goals humbly and with diligence."

Taylor is married and his wife is a dentist in the area. He enjoys long distance running, hiking in the mountains, snow skiing, fly fishing, reading American history, and following UVA athletics.
